End of the line for robocalls?

Re “Why blocking robocalls isn’t easy,” Column, June 2

At long last Congress may actually do something that affects the quality of my everyday life.

I work from home and have had to stop answering my phone. The robocalls are incessant. The two most persistent include one man’s deep voice beginning “Hello seniors” and a saccharine female voice saying “Hi, this is Megan.”

It’s been a long time since I’ve applauded our dysfunctio­nal Congress, but lawmakers will win kudos from me if they can block these calls and let me answer my phone again.
